My Find while hunting with MinelabIowa

Joe, MinelabIowa was kind enough to invite me along to hunt the feild that had a fair on it before the start of the Cilvil war. 7 hour round trip road time and 8 hours of swinging netted me one keeper, and a sweet keeper at that. Belive it or not this is the 3rd half dime I have found this year for a life time total of four. Thanks again Joe!! (but I still would have traded you by finding the silver 3 center and flying Eagle you found. those are great coins!!!)

Very nice 1/2 dime and congrats on getting 4 of them in your career. I also would have traded the 1/2 dime for a 3 center. Very nice hunting
 
Congratulations on the half dime! One of my very favorite tiny little coins. That is an excellent find. :perfect10:

That was eight hours well spent, if you ask me! I would trade a handful of Mercs and Wheaties for that find any day! Terrific coin! I can only dream of finding something that good! :smitten:

Congrats, Dennis! :clapping:
